Amy Butler Midwest Modern Fabric, Anyone? {Giveaway}

Only an awesome blogger, like Sew, Mama, Sew, can come up with a day like this. And crazy bloggers like me? We participate!

If you are a follower, you will remember the Thank You giveaway I did back in August? You also know that I am not a HUGE giveaway gal, but since I am laid up and not sewing because of My Full Confession...I thought I would give you a chance to get your hands on more

Hey, I'm the first comment! Means I totally won't win. Oh, well. I have a bunch of fabrics from a line that is so old I can't remember the name! I bought them to make some things for my kitchen, because it matches, and I keep putting it off! I think I tend to sew for others before myself.

I've got a small stash of fabrics that need just the right project, I've been eyeing the cathedral windows (it's so pretty) and think that 2013 will be the year I get into more intricate quiltmaking. :)Thank you for the chance.

I have so much fabric I haven't cut yet, because I just can't do it!!! It's all so precious! But I have some liberty london that's sitting in my closet that's probably not going to turn into anything...

I love your cathedral quilt idea. Beautiful! I don't even know where to start as to the fabric I've set aside, but haven't the courage to use yet. It inspires me when I start a new project, but someday I'll need to dive in and sew!

I have this one fabric that is a beautiful brid fabric. I can't even remember the name of it now because I seriously bought it about 4 years ago. Still haven't used it because like you said I need the perfect project for it. :) Sending warm wishes and happy holidays to you guys. Thank you Heidi!!

Thanks for the giveaway, hope you feel like you're recovering. I don't have any lines currently (as lines) but I do have a whole stash of Carol Bryer Fallert gradations fabrics that I have a really hard time bringing myself to cutting up. Eek!

I have 5 fat quaters of a limited edition Liberty Print for the V&A that I still haven't managed to cut into. Shameless, and thanks for the chance to win, I know how hard it is to be giving these away!

I have three yards of a gorgeous Asian print that I'm not sure what to do with. I keep waiting for the perfect pattern to come along, especially since I know I need some coordinating prints. I have one other print so far but need a couple more! There is a local quilt shop that specializes in Asian prints but I'm waiting to visit until I have money to spend. I just KNOW that I will walk out with several hundred dollars of fabric. ;) I don't want to go and have to walk away sad because I can't buy anything! hehe

I had some Weekends by Erin McMorris set aside for my daughter's bed quilt for almost 2 years for fear of choosing the wrong pattern for it. I cut into last month and sent it off to bee-mates to make me some Stargazing blocks. Better late than never...

I am already a follower. That is a beautiful apron. I have several bundles by French General that are waiting for the perfect project. I also have some fabric that I dyed myself that I can't seem to cut.

I've got a couple charm packs of Me and My Sisters (I think they are Amelia), in the drawer somewhere. But there are so many little boys in my life and no little girls, so they are just collecting dust!

I have a few fabric lines that I am having trouble cutting into-they sit on my shelf. I even bought fabric just to make Christmas gifts out of and it kills me to cut into it. It is Nancy's Holiday Favorites by Benartex. I love it.

My Far Far Away fabrics. I just can't bear to cut them for some reason. I haven't found the perfect plan for them yet I guess so there they sit. I don't know that I'll ever be able to cut them honestly!

Actually I just cut into a charm pack recently that a friend bought me for my birthday earlier this year...my first Moda project! I'm so excited! I finally chose to make a hexagon bag I'd seen on AllPeopleQuilt.com with it and it's coming along nicely. I can't wait to finish and use it!

I can relate to everything you have said. I have even bought fabric for a giveaway, birthday and christmas and couldn't let go of it. I have quite a few bundles that I want to make somthing out of but nothing is ever special enough. I'm not getting any younger and 'one day' is getting here sooner than I would like

I can't seem to cut into my Bliss (Bonnie and Camille for Moda)! It's just beautiful, and was one of the very first yardages of fabric that I bought when I started this quilting journey. I thought it would be perfect for when we had a baby girl. Well, two years later and no baby yet, I'm thinking perhaps I should cut into it and make a purse or quilt or a skirt of two or three for me. Who knows! I just know that it's really special to me, and I can't cut into it...just yet. :)

so excited about coming across all these new to me blogs via these giveaways.Looking forward to exploring your blog. I've got more fabric saved than I have actually used. Kind of a problem really. mandytacchini(at)hotmail(dot)com

I have some fabric with zoo animals on it-urban zoology maybe? that I won from Sew Mama Sew a long time ago and have always had the vague idea of making something special for my son, but no project ever seemed quite right yet...so it sits up on the shelf, collecting dust...

I bought a few metres of Valori Well's Wrnely Christmas but can't quite decide what to do with them so just keep getting them out to look at them. Need to come up with an idea soon, had better start searching some blogs for inspiration.

I love Amy Butler's fabric! I have a few of her Love line of fabrics. I have some Alexander Henry Mod Dot fabric that I've been saving for the perfect project. Thanks for the chance to win!mvlouie99(at)yahoo(dot)com

What a lovely give away! I have a yard of red fabric with "mod" girls on it. I'm not sure who the designer is as the selvages were removed but the colors, the print is just so wonderful I can't put scissors to it....not yet anyway ;)

No question: Hope Valley. I only just got the whole thing since the price started going down, and I'm still trying to decide what to do with it. I even have a Pinterest group for Hope Valley possibilities. What a nerd. Thanks for dipping into your precious stuff for us!

I honestly can't think of any fabrics I have that I wouldn't be willing to cut into. Though I must admit to saving my favorites for something I get to keep rather than a project or gift for someone else! (unless I really like that person haha) Thanks for the chance to win! jgemeroy(at)shaw(dot)ca

I have such a hard time cutting into ANY fabric! I just want to collect it... But I have been really good lately at 'forcing' myself to cut into a lot fo my lovely fabric... because I did buy it in order to SEW with it! LOL! So fun to read about others who hate to cut into fabric!

The purple/teal & Gray/Yellow colour ways of Joel Dewberry Avery 2... I get them out and look at them about once a month and I dream of things to do with them. Should just buy more and start cutting :)

Hi. I don't have a specific line, the material i have been stashing that I can't cut is spots. Anything at all to do with dots or spots, I collect. But don't use!! weird huh. Cheers Karen karen.schulz@paradise.net.nz

Hi there!

I'm Heidi! I'm a quilter, longarmer (is that even a word?), pattern designer, and mom of four fantastic boys. Basically, I'm just trying to keep my head above water. Did I mention that I never take myself too seriously?
